[log4perl-devel] Error when re-initializing log4perl

[Marc Z. <mar...@gm...>]

I have a program that configures a basic Log4perl config so that I have 
some sane logging until I'm able to read in the config file with the 
final configuration. I'm getting an error when calling 
Log::Log4perl->init() the second time that I cannot seem to track down.

 From the reading of the docs, this is a valid use case. Its a pretty 
basic perl script, not using fork() or threads or anything, and running 
from the commandline, not mod_perl or something like that.

The error I get is:

Can't call method "log" on an undefined value at 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Log/Log4perl/Appender.pm line 189.

This is generated when I do the second Log::Log4perl->init(filename) 
call. The first call to init passes in a string with the basic 
configuration.

Anyone have any ideas what the issue might be?

I'm running Log4perl-1.40, using Red Hat 5 64-bit.
